| Abstract | Immune targeting of (glyco)protein tumor markers has been useful to develop cancer and virus vaccines. However, the ganglioside family of tumor-associated glycolipids remains intractable to vaccine approaches. Here we show that synthetic antigens mimicking the carbohydrate moiety of GD2 or GD3 gangliosides can be used as vaccines to activate a selective humoral and cellular immunity that is therapeutic against several cancers expressing GD2 or GD3. Adoptive transfer of T cells generated after vaccination elicits tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes of the γδ T cell receptor and CD8⁺ phenotypes; and affords a high therapeutic index. The glycomimetic vaccine principles can be expanded to target the family of tumor gangliosides and other carbohydrates expressed primarily in pathological states. |
